So for the future, I am looking at what cham would be better. I want to get a veiled, im trying to decide from a low color translucent or a orange premium (Naval Bloodline) from FL Chams. Opinions? Also does the paler coloring on the cham shorten anything like lifespan, or is it just coloration.?
Thats a terrible story, don't want my cham to have that sorta ending. Also probably wouldn't be a good idea since at that time, the cham would only be 7-8 months old.
I have looked up the laws regarding bringing reptiles across the boarder. You can bring nearly any reptile across the boarder without a permit/papers except turtles/tortoises. Most people here think im going by plane and that i will have to import them. I drive because my family has a dog.
This year i was thinking about bringing him on the trip in a travel tub. But im not sure yet. @CamrynTheCham22 thanks for the info, definitely have some decisions to make. The auto mister is good idea
But I want to get a reptile that i really like not something thats convenient as my mom says I can only have one more reptile.
So i don't want to spend all of this money, like the reptile, but in the back of my mind still want a certain reptile more than one thats "convenient".
I have read up so much about chams, but the thing thats killing the idea of getting one is that travel to Canada for a month every summer. And the experienced owners here believe it would be too stressful of the cham. Which it probably would be.
So after being told i shouldn't i probably won't...
I know that you think i shouldn't get a cham yet and i probably won't but please read this article

I was considering a beardie, but they need a 55 gallon tank at least and they are much more expensive than almost any chameleon cage by itself. The glass tanks also take up more space as its horizontal. Sorry this is not a all around reptile forum. But, opinions?
